Public bug reported: Hi all, I have a problem: I just installed Kubuntu hardy Alpha 5 on my stationary pc (mounted the iso through Daemon-tools and installed it through the Wubi-thing). Now, when I boot up I get to decide whether I want to start XP or Kubuntu. That sounds great, and I choose Kubuntu, it begins loading Kubuntu, and then it spits out a KDialog-error box reading:
"There was an error setting up inter-process communications for KDE. The message returned by the system was: Authentication rejected, reason: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed. Please check that the "dcopserver" program is running." Then I press OK, and a few seconds later the same dialog appears again. I press OK on that one too, and then I get a new dialog saying that the installation failed, that logs have been saved at /ubuntu/installation-logs.zip (which I obviously can't access, since Kubuntu won't install) and that the system is now going to reboot. I have tried a couple of times, and every time the authentication fails and the system reboots - what's going on?! ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Authentication rejected on Kubuntu installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197958 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
